From Tantor.com:

One of the acknowledged masterpieces of nineteenth-century realism, Madame
Bovary is revered by writers and readers around the world, a mandatory stop on
any pilgrimage through modern literature. Gustave Flaubert\'s legendary style,
his intense care over the selection of words and the shaping of sentences, and
his unmatched ability to convey a mental world through the careful selection of
telling details shine throughout this marvelous work.

Madame Bovary scandalized audiences when it was first published in 1857. And
the story itself remains as fresh today as when it was first written, a work
that remains unsurpassed in its unveiling of character and society. It tells
the tragic story of the romantic but empty-headed Emma Rouault. When Emma marries
Charles Bovary, she imagines she will pass into the life of luxury and passion
that she reads about in sentimental novels and women\'s magazines. But Charles is
an ordinary country doctor, and provincial life is very different from the
romantic excitement for which she yearns. In her quest to realize her dreams she
takes a lover, Rodolphe, and begins a devastating spiral into deceit and despair.
And Flaubert captures every step of this catastrophe with sharp-eyed detail and
a wonderfully subtle understanding of human emotions.


From Wiki:

Gustave Flaubert was a French writer who is counted among the greatest Western
novelists. He is known especially for his first published novel, Madame Bovary
(1856), and for his scrupulous devotion to his art and style.

Madame Bovary is Gustave Flaubert\'s first published novel and is
considered his masterpiece. The story focuses on a doctor\'s wife, Emma Bovary,
who has adulterous affairs and lives beyond her means in order to escape the
banalities and emptiness of provincial life. Though the basic plot is rather
simple, even archetypal, the novel\'s true art lies in its details and hidden
patterns. Flaubert was notoriously a perfectionist about his writing and claimed
always to be searching for le mot juste (\"the right word\").

The novel was attacked for obscenity by public prosecutors when it was first
serialized in La Revue de Paris between October 1, 1856 and December 15, 1856,
resulting in a trial in January 1857 that made the story notorious. After the
acquittal on February 7, 1857, it became a bestseller when it was published as
a book in April 1857, and now stands virtually unchallenged not only as a seminal
work of Realism, but as one of the most influential novels ever written.

A 2007 poll of contemporary authors, published in a book entitled The Top Ten,
cited Madame Bovary as one of the two greatest novels ever written, second only
to Leo Tolstoy\'s Anna Karenina.
